This "imagier" of the Château de Versailles offers, in 220 reproductions, a visual journey through known and less known places in Versailles, from the Marble Courtyard to the Hall of Mirrors, from the Great Apartments to the Chapel, from the Opera House to the Gardens, not to mention the Trianons, the Queen's Hamlet and even the King's vegetable garden...
Architectural photographs are displayed alongside the greatest artistic masterpieces, selected from furniture, paintings and statuary. Archival documents, old, surprising and sometimes picturesque photographs bring history to life and reflect the unique atmosphere of this mythical castle. Numerous quotations punctuate this visit with images, and the reduced format allows the reader to easily take a few Versailles home with him.
